YJTAVING  commenced  collecting  when  quite 
J.  JL  youngy  and  with  no  definite  plan,  my 
purchases  have  been  such  only  as  a  progressive 
literary  or  artistic  taste  and  knowledge  sug- 
gested. The  result  is  a  library  of  a  somewhat 
diversified  or  miscellaneous  character. 

Unless  for  purpose  of  sale^  a  catalogue  plac- 
ing side  by  side  in  alphabetical  arrangement 
authors  of  different  kindreds  and  tongues  has 
always  seemed  to  me  objectionable.  Upon  the 
other  handy  the  French  methods ,  which  divide 
and  sub-divide y  in  a  strictly  literary  classifica- 
tion ^  while  enabling  one  more  readily  to  as- 
certain what  a  library  may  contain  in  especial 
branches,  leads  to  subtle  distinctions  in  the  ar- 
rangement of  the  sections y  which  are  in  a  measure 
confusing  and  inconvenient  for  ready  reference. 

English  literature  up  to  the  end  of  the  seven- 
teenth century  forms  in  many  respects  a  distinc- 


[  viii  ] 
five  epoch,  and  is   of  such  paramount  interest 
that  I  have  limited  the  contents  of  the  present  cat- 
alogue to  the  English  books  I  possess ,  which  were 
written  by  authors  living  before  the  year  IJOO. 

To  the  original  and  early  editions  are  added 
modern  editions  of  some  books,  when  later  literary 
or  bibliographical  research  has  made  them  of 
value  and  importance. 

Bibliographical  notes  and  descriptions  being 
desirable  in  many  instances,  and  a  satisfactory 
selection  dificult,  collations  have  been  made  of 
every  book.  Those  of  the  modern  editions  may 
be  found  more  useful  as  time  advances.  De- 
scriptions of  the  bindings  are  given  for  the  iden- 
tification of  the  copies  recorded. 

Every  student  and  collector  is  aware  of  the 
increasing  dificulty  of  obtaining  perfect  copies 
of  original  or  desirable  editions  of  the  best  Eng- 
lish authors  of  the  Elizabethan  period.  In 
this,  as  in  other  pursuits,  one  can  look  back  upon 
lost  opportunities  and  errors.  I  am  only  too  well 
aware  of  the  gaps  which  remain  to  be  filled  in 
my  collection  and    which  a   printed  catalogue 

*  The  cataloging  has  been  done  by  Mr.  James  Osborne  Wright 
assisted  by  Miss  Carolyn  Shipman.

aids  to  emphasize.     In  some  cases^  however ^  it 
is  the  seeking  after  the  unattainable. 

The  pleasure  and  profit  derived  from  inter- 
course with  these  books  have  made  the  leisure 
hours  devoted  to  them  most  delightful,  and  the 
printing  of  this  catalogue  is  in  a  measure  a 
tribute  to  the  enjoyment  they  have  yielded.

Herbert  mentions  an  edition  of  1598,  but  this  is 
probably  an  error.  There  is  little  doubt  that  Allot  and 
not  Bodenham  was  the  editor,  for  a  copy  of  this  edition 
in  the  British  Museum  contains  an  epistle  in  which 
Allot  dedicates  to  Bodenham  this  "  collection  of  the 
flowers  of  antiquities  and  histories."

^/(j,  blue  straight-grained  morocco^  gilt  back  and  sides^

First  edition.  From  the  Jolley  collection.  This  is 
clearly  a  Shakespearian  book,  not  only  because  it  men- 
tions FalstafF  by  name,  but  because  it  contains  two 
catches,  part  of  one  of  which  is  sung  by  Autolycus  in 

"  The  Winter's  Tale,"  Act  IV,  Sc.  2 :  "  Jog  on 

mile-a,"  &c.  Then  follow  eight  other  lines  not  quoted 
by  Shakespeare.  The  other  catch  is  mentioned  in 
"Twelfth  Night,"  Act  II,  Sc.  3,  where  Sir  Toby 
Belch  says  :  "  Malvolio's  a  Peg-a-Ramsey,  and 
'  Three  merry  men  be  we.'  "  The  mention  of  Fal- 
staff  occurs  in  a  catch,  the  first  stanza  of  which 
runs  thus  characteristically,  "Wilt  thou  be  fatt  — 
—  fatt  ? "

This  tract  is  assigned  by  Dalrymple  to  Wither,  though 
it  is  not  registered  as  such  by  the  poet  or  his  biographers. 
Wither,  in  the  tract,  acts  as  foreman  of  the  poetical 
jury.  Pulham  says  it  is  erroneously  attributed  to  him. 
It  is  a  curious  production,  somewhat  on  the  plan  of 
Suckling's  "  Session  of  the  Poets,"  and  includes  notices 
of  several  early  English  writers.  On  page  12  is  a  ref- 
erence to  Wither's  "  Abuses  Stript  and  Whipt."

There  are  two  editions  dated  1635,  of  which  this  is 
probably  the  first  issue  ("  Beamount ").  Both  omit  the 
dedication  by  Walter  Burre  to  Mr.  Robert  Caesar,  found 
only  in  the  first  edition  of  1613.  The  issue  above  has 
a  smaller  type  in  the  address  "  To  the  Readers  of  this 
Comedy, "  and  larger  in  the  Prologue.  Perhaps  the  easi- 
est mark  of  identification  is  in  the  opening  line  of  the 
play,  which  in  this  issue  ends  at  the  word  "great,"  while  in 
the  other  the  three  last  words,  "  all  that's  great "  form 
a  second  line.

E.  B.  Efq  ;  Several  Parts  thereof  fet  to  fit  Aires 
by  M''  J.  Jenkins.      (Five  lines  in  Latin). 

London,  Printed  by  R.  N.  Sold  by  Henry 
Seile  in  Fleetfl;reet,  and  Humphrey  Mofeley  at 
the  Princes  Arms  in  S.  Pauls  Church-yard.    1652. 

Folio^  old  brown  morocco^  gilt  corners^  the  arms  of  Ben- 
lowes  impressed  in  gold  on  each  side^  rough  gilt  edges. 

Twenty-three  copper-plate  engravings,  including  por- 
trait of  Benlowes,  and  Theophila  crushing  the  serpent, 
by  Barlow,  also  the  four  seasons  by  Hollar,  and  two 
woodcuts. 

It  is  generally  believed  that  no  absolutely  perfect  copy 
of  this  book  is  known,  but  it  is  far  more  probable  that 
many  plates  supposed  to  be  missing  were  merely  interpo- 
lations. It  would  be  possible,  even  at  this  late  day,  to 
insert  many  plates  of  the  period  so  aptly  fitting  the  text 
as  to  appear  a  necessity  to  a  perfect  copy.

Black-letter.  Double  columns.  First  edition  in  Eng- 
lish. There  appear  to  have  been  three  editions  of  Frois- 
sart's  Chronicle,  one  by  Pynson,  another  with  his  name, 
but  supposed  to  be  a  pirated  edition,  and  a  third  by 
W.  Middleton.  Copies  are  frequently  found  made  up 
from  the  three  editions.  Utterson,  in  his  reprint  of 
Pynson's  edition,  says  "  Middleton's  impression  is  line 
for  line  with  Pynson's."  In  the  title  of  Volume  I.,  Henry 
VIII.  is  styled  "  Of  the  churche  of  Englande  and  alfo  of 
Irelande  in  earth  the  fupreme  heade."  As  Henry  did  not 
assume  this  title  until  1530,  it  is  clear  that  the  date  of 
the  first  volume  is  at  least  five  years  later  than  that  of 
the  second.  Middleton  did  not  begin  to  print  until 
about  ten  years  after  Pynson's  death. 

The  present  copy  is  one  of  the  finest  in  existence.

probably  because  of  the  cancellation  of  the  pages  in  the  text.

here  inserted  for  the  first  time.  The  title  consists  of 
the  single  word  "  Polycronycon,"  printed  in  red  ink,  over 
a  large  woodcut  of  St.  George  and  the  dragon,  below 
which,  in  red  ink,  is  the  device  of  John  Reynes.  At 
the  top  of  the  page  is  a  band  composed  of  three  medal- 
lions, surmounted  by  a  crown  over  the  central  one,  the

head  of  the  king.  The  right-hand  medallion  is  in  red 
ink.  This  is  perhaps  the  most  magnificent  title-page  of 
which  the  early  annals  of  English  printing  can  boast.  The 
colophon  is  in  the  center  of  a  border,  representing  boys 
hunting  and  slaying  a  boar,  at  the  bottom  ;  at  the  top  a 
girl  in  a  car  is  drawn  in  triumph,  with  the  boar  on  her 
lap. 

The  five  stanzas  on  the  verso  of  the  title  are  exactly 
copied  from  Wynken  de  Worde's  edition. 

Collation  :  Title  as  described  above,  in  red  and  black,  aai

word  "  Polycronycon "  is  omitted,  and  the  medallion  band  is  en- 
larged into  a  tablet,  at  each  end  of  which  is  the  device  of  John 
Reynes,  omitted  at  the  bottom  of  the  page).  Folios  I-CCCxlvi

CAXTON,  William,  ir ansial or. —  [ThQ  Gold- 
en Legende.  Printed  by  William  Caxton,  Lon- 
don, 1483.]  A  fragment  of  forty-four  leaves,  not 
consecutive. 

Folio,  brown  morocco,  gilt  back,  side  fillets  with  gold  orna- 
ments in  the  corners,  broad  inside  borders  of  fillets  and  orna- 
ments, gilt  edges,  by  Charles  Lewis. 

Black-letter.  Double  columns,  illuminated  initials  and 
paragraph  marks,  and  twelve  small  woodcuts  and  a  large 
one. 

The  author  of  this  work,  written  in  Latin  about  1260 
and  entitled  "  Legenda  Aurea,"  was  Jacobus  de  Vora- 
gine,  Archbishop  of  Genoa.  It  was  translated  into 
French  in  the  following  century  by  Jean  de  Vignay, 
whose   version   was  the    basis    of  Caxton's   translation. 


CAXTON  215 

Warton  calls  the  work  "  an  inexhaustible  repository 
of  religious  fable."  Caxton's  complete  work  contains 
ccccxliiii  folios,  and  is,  without  exception,  one  of  the 
most  elaborate,  skilful,  and  magnificent  specimens  of 
printing  that  he  ever  produced.  It  abounds  with  wood- 
cuts. 

This  present  fragment  is  from  the  Stowe  collection, 
with  the  arms  of  the  Duke  of  Buckingham  inside. 

No  complete  copy  of  the  work  exists. 

Collation  :  The  text  begins  with  folio  XLIV.  verso  :  "  Here 
begynneth  the  lyf  of  ylaac  with  thiftorye  of  Efau  and  of  Jacob 
whiche  is  redde  in  the  chirche  the  fecond  Ibnday  of  lente,"  and 
extends  to  folio  XLVIII.  verso,  finishing  the  life  of  Isaac  and  be- 
ginning the  story  of  Joseph  and  his  brethren.  The  next  page  is 
folio  LVIIII,  "Thyftorye  of  Moyfes,"  hz  (misprinted  g2). 
Hereafter  the  sequence  is  perfect,  ending  with  folio  LXXXXVII 
(mS)  in  eights, "  Thus  endeth  of  laynt  Eugene  And  fynyffheth  this 
prefent  book  Emprinted  by  me  William  Caxton."  There  is  no 
folio  LXXXX,  but  the  signatures  and  text  are  continuous. 
LXXXIV  is  misprinted  LXXXHI.

First  edition.  Black-letter,  with  numerous  illuminated 
initials. 

The  existing  copies  of  this  book,  according  to 
Blades,  are  nine  in  number,  the  only  perfect  ones  being 
in  the  British  Museum  (not  very  clean),  and  in  Merton 
College.  Of  the  other  seven  copies  recorded  by  him, 
all  are  more  or  less  deficient,  and  none  of  them  has  either 
the  first  or  the  last  leaf.  In  the  present  copy,  which  is 
not  included  in  his  list,  both  of  these  leaves  exist  in 
perfect  condition.  There  are  sixteen  missing,  viz.,  2,  3,4, 
5,  6,  7,  127,  151,  297,  298,  299,  300,  301,  302,  303, 
304.  These  have  been  facsimiled  from  the  British  Museum 
copy,  and  as  the  book  was  loose  in  dilapidated  covers, 
and  the  binding  not  an  original  one,  it  was  rebound  by 
Cuzin,  and  after  his  death  completed  by  his  assistant  and 
successor,  Mercier. 

With  the  exception  of  the  missing  pages,  the  condi- 
tion of  the  book  leaves  nothing  to  be  desired. 

Collation  :  There  are  371  folios  printed  in  single  columns, 
with  29  lines  to  a  page.  The  book,  has  neither  numerals,  signa- 
tures, nor  catchwords.  There  is  no  preface  j  the  poem  begins  im- 
mediately with  the  Prologue,  "Whan  that  Apprill  with  his  ftiouris 
fote,"  etc.  At  the  end  of  the  Parson's  Tale  (folio  371  recto)  : 
"Explicit  Tractatus  Galfrydi  Chaucer  de  Penitencia  ut  dicitur  pro 
Fabula  Lectoris."  On  the  verso  of  this  leaf  is  Chaucer's  supposed  re- 
cantation :  "  Now  pray  I  to  hem  alle."  The  tales  follow  one  an- 
other without  breaks  of  any  kind.

give  this  mere  title-page  account  of  so  uncommon  a

of  it  was  to  be  found.  Ames  describes  it  only  as  hav-

sume he  meant  vellum).  He  has  been  copious  in  his 
account  of  Copland's  reimpression  of  it,  from  which 
Herbert  has  taken  the  whole  of  his  own  description,  at
